Kos and the Turkish town of Bodrum were worst hit though tremors also affected surrounding islands and Turkey's Aegean coast..

Tourists slept outside their hotels to make sure they were safe from aftershocks.

This streetside cafe was flooded with debris by the force of the quake.

This facade of this church was also left cracked the morning after.

There was also damage in Bodrum, where this car was upturned in the night.

At a harbor in Kos this quay wall was wrenched from the mainland.

The damage to the White Corner Club, the site of the only fatalities of the quake, could be seen more fully the morning after.

Buildings across the island partially collapsed, causing further injuries.

This mosque on Kos lost its minaret in the quake, the rubble from which is strewn on the ground in front of it.
